Show Notes

We're returning to the Weird Circle for an episode entitled "The Doll," an adaptation of Fitz-James O'Brien's short story, "The Wondersmith."

What arcane secret makes this doll so special? Would a reading of the original story be the perfect Christmas Eve tradition? Listen for yourself and find out!
